Non- Diegetic Audio

Hey blog! My film opening is based around music so a key component I need is non diegetic audio. I had previously messages multiple EDM artists and even their record labels and still no response. This is a problem since I wanted to start filming next week and if i don't have a song for it yet then it will be difficult to sync up the sounds. So I went back to youtube and I found some uncopyrighted songs. I ran into some issues finding anything. Some were too slow and some just didnt fit the overall aesthetic of the film. Here was one of my first options I was looking into.

I didnt give up just yet; I looked through multiple playlist of uncopyrighted "House" songs and I finally came across the one. For my film, ill be using this 30 second clip found in the middle of the excerpt. This will cover the last 34 seconds of the film opening. For the remainder of the time, I was able to isolate the vocals and even the beats. For part of the film, evan will be shown pieces these two elements together and then finally reveal at the end what he composed. 

Diegetic Audio

So, I tested how sound picks up on my phone in regards to tearing pages and clicking buttons and I think it could be better. Also, the car/beach scene might not pick up sound very well due to the overbearing wind. Ive decided to film first and if needed, I will develop some foley sound to match up with the clips.
